TT F

TINO'S MAGIC and SMART TOP (ARG) were stubborn loading. ECSTATICA was slow away, lost 2 lengths. Jockey Yeni, the rider of GUISEPPE, and Jockey Kennedy, the rider of FULL FATHOMS FIVE, reported that their mounts took no interest in the running. Jockey Vlooh reported that ECSTATICA was not striding out freely in the running and he did not persevere with his ride over the final 200 metres. SMART TOP (ARG) was selected for the taking of specimens for analysis. Trainer Paddock was questioned regarding the general improvement of this gelding compared to his previous races. He stated that this was his first race on the Polytrack. ONE TRACK MIND raced with blinker/pacifiers. RED SQUARED, TINO'S MAGIC and ICEMAN raced with blinkers. Vet: GUISEPPE - uneven behind. FULL FATHOMS FIVE - uneven behind, fatigued. SMART TOP (ARG) - checked post race, nothing obvious detected. ECSTATICA - coughing post race, short right hind. BOLOGNESE DANCER - abnormal respiratory noise.
